Will translating "I am marrying you" result in marriage
Question
There are some websites and apps on the internet which help us learn foreign languages. Now on these sites we have to translate from one language to another. If they ask me to translate a sentence, I translate it and the translation is "I am marrying you". When I send the translation, if they read it with two witnesses and accepts it, does it make a marriage?
Answer
No.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
